Chapter 525 I'll Slice You
Even the chief shopkeeper on the first floor looked ecstatic.
"Mr. Du, please help me."
Before he finished speaking, Mr. Du raised his right hand.
Everyone was shocked when they saw that three fingers of his right hand were bandaged.
"I'm sorry, I accidentally burned my hand the day before yesterday and can't use a knife," said Mr. Du.
It was like a basin of ice water poured over the head of the shopkeeper.
He was really about to cry.
"But what good will it be if I cut the mushroom for you?" Old Du rolled his eyes.
"Isn't it impossible to cut it?"
Shen Xuan continued, "If you can cut it, Mr. Du can also help cook it. The Thousand Snow Mushrooms he makes will not be inferior to Chef Sun's. At that time, the person who cuts the mushrooms will get half a catty, and Mr. Du who cooks will get half a catty. How about that?"
They had not ordered the Thousand Snow Mushroom before, but when Shen Xuan saw Fu Zhaoning coming here, he definitely wanted to try it. It was a rare opportunity.
"good!"
The chief shopkeeper immediately made the decision and said to the others, "Dear guests, we can only take the half catty that our boss has reserved for himself and the half catty that you have reserved, so the quantity will be less. Is that ok?"
The Second Prince's eyes were on Shen Xuan when he came in.
Hearing this, he nodded with a smile, "Okay."
Since the Second Prince agreed, no one else dared to object. Eating one less bite is better than having nothing.
"Didn't Mr. Du burn his hands? Who else can cut it?"
Fu Zhaoning had already walked to Mr. Du's side, "Uncle, how did you burn your hand?"
She knew that Mr. Du paid special attention to his hands. An injury might make him unable to hold the spoon anymore, which was unbearable for him.
"We'll talk about this later." Old Du shook his head. "Zhao Ning, how do you cut the Thousand Snow Mushroom into thousands of flower-like pieces? Use the same knife technique that I used to cut the Hanmei Tofu for you. Go ahead and cut it."
"Oh my god?" Fu Zhaoning was shocked.
Others also wondered if there was something wrong with their ears.
"she?"
"Are you kidding me?"
"That's her. She's good at knife skills." Old Du was very proud and patted Fu Zhaoning on the shoulder. "Go ahead. Your knife skills are no worse than my grandson's."
Before Fu Zhaoning met Mr. Du, she had never thought that the knife control skills she had learned for surgery could also be used in cooking.
This was a skill that was accidentally discovered by Mr. Du in the kitchen before.
At that time, Fu Zhaoning had nothing to do, so he went to the kitchen to watch Mr. Du cook. Mr. Du said that if he wanted to carve a radish flower with crystal clear petals, he needed to cut it very thinly, so Fu Zhaoning said he would give it a try.
As a result, she used the small knife that Mr. Du used specially for carving. It felt like holding a scalpel. With the knife in her hand, she felt like she could do whatever she wanted.
The radish flowers were cut so thinly and beautifully that light could shine through the petals.
"Go quickly, the mushrooms can't wait any longer."
The shopkeeper didn't believe it, but it was Old Du who said it! The method of making Qianxue Mushroom was created by Old Du!
"Girl, please come in, please come in."
He didn't care about anything else and quickly led Fu Zhaoning to the chopping board.
There, in a basin made of white jade, there were white mushrooms soaking.
Is this the Ling Mushroom?
Fu Zhaoning had indeed never seen this kind of mushroom before.
The Second Prince followed, and Marquis Ping En quickly followed. There were still many people trying to squeeze in to see, but the kitchen couldn't hold so many people, so they could only peek in from the door, stretching their necks.
"Give me your grandson's knife." said Mr. Du.
Someone immediately brought Chef Sun's slicing knife over.
Fu Zhaoning looked at Shen Xuan, then at Mr. Du, and they both nodded encouragingly to her.
"Then I'll try."
"Just try it." said Mr. Du.
Would the people of the Huo family dare to cause trouble for her? He was able to offer a dish to the Huo family to open the First Floor, and he could support the rival family to defeat the First Floor.
So arrogant.
Fu Zhaoning nodded and did not refuse. He washed his hands, picked up the knife, picked up a mushroom with one hand and started cutting it.
In the first few moves, you can still see her slightly unfamiliar technique.
But before others could doubt her, she quickened her pace.
The knife moved on the mushroom so quickly that it was hard to tell whether it had cut through it or not!
This mushroom needs to be cut countless times until it looks whole, but once placed in water, it suddenly seems to bloom, with almost transparent pieces floating up, looking like small pieces of snow falling on a flower, light, white and soft.
Fu Zhaoning cut one and put it in another white jade basin. The mushroom opened slightly, and the petals were wispy and beautiful.
The head shopkeeper's heart was about to jump out of his chest. He almost cried out in surprise, but he was afraid of disturbing Fu Zhaoning, so he had to hold it in.
Because even Chef Sun had to remain calm and concentrate when cutting the mushrooms and must not be disturbed.
But he actually heard what Mr. Du said to Fu Zhaoning at this time.
"Yes, that's it. When it's cooked in broth later, it will be softer. When it's placed on a plate with broccoli, it will look like layers of white snow covering a green mountain."
Thousands of mountains are covered with snow, crystal clear and clean.
What made the shopkeeper almost jump up was that Fu Zhaoning responded.
"Is that why it's called Thousand Snow Mushroom? I originally thought the name of this mushroom was Thousand Snow Mushroom."
Wow, how can his hands be so steady while he is talking!
The second prince was so fascinated that he couldn't divert his attention away from Fu Zhaoning.
Especially, this girl just called Mr. Du "cousin uncle"? He is from the Du family.
Marquis Ping'en's eyes almost popped out.
He really didn't expect that Fu Zhaoning was so powerful.
By the time Fu Zhaoning had finished cutting the mushrooms, Old Du had already started the pot and had driven them out.
"There's nothing good to see in what I'm cooking next. Second Prince, please go to the private room and wait."
Fu Zhaoning also stepped out.
She looked at Marquis Ping'en.
Ping Enhou suddenly felt something was wrong. Just as he was about to speak, he heard Fu Zhaoning say, "You bumped into us first, then scolded us, and wanted to break our arms. You even wanted me to serve you and watch you eat the Thousand Snow Mushroom?"
"oh?"
Shen Xuan said "oh" lightly and looked at Marquis Ping'en.
Marquis Ping'en knew that Shen Xuan had been arrogant since he was a child, and even if the emperor wanted to deal with the Shen family, he had not yet been completely successful.
Shen Xuan is a petty person. Does it look like he is trying to take revenge on him for Fu Zhaoning?
"What? Did Marquis Ping'en really say that?" The Second Prince was also shocked. "Marquis Ping'en, is what the girl said true?"
"I, I just wanted to scare her."
Marquis Ping'en became intimidated by Shen Xuan's deep gaze.
Fu Zhaoning chuckled softly.
She took a step forward and said to him clearly, "I also want to scare you now, Lord. Did you see my knife skills just now? Lord, do you think I have the ability to slice you into pieces quietly?"
hiss!
Marquis Ping En took a step back and looked at her in horror.
